Notice to Navigators: Illinois River
IRCA: Starved Rock Lock Width Restrictions
I just received word that Starved Rock Lock has a 2’ ice shelf on the left descending wall and will now begin a 105’ width restriction. Helper boats are required in both directions, as are ice couplings.
I’ll send more updates as I receive them.
Best regards,
